SCOTUS Is About To Make Huge Judgement Some Claim Could Lead To 2nd Civil War
The court is contemplating whether to hear an appeal from Highland Park pediatrician Arie S. Friedman, who says that
The Second Amendment to the Constitution has long been one of the most valued amendments of the Bill of Rights.
The amendment reads: A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed.
Countless liberals, though, inquired whether individual citizens possessing firearms amounted to a well regulated militia.
The question was put to rest by the Supreme Court in the 2008 determination District of Columbia v. Heller. The court, in an viewpoint authored by Justice Antonin Scalia, ruled that there was actually a personal right to gun ownership for traditionally lawful purposes such as self-defense in the residence.
Currently, there is yet another important case addressing gun rights which the Supreme Court is contemplating taking up.
The case concerns a semiautomatic gun restriction in a Chicago suburb.
The court is contemplating whether to hear an appeal from Highland Park pediatrician Arie S. Friedman, who says that the gun restriction forbids him the capacity to utilize semiautomatic weapons to protect his family and home, which Friedman states is a right protected by the Second Amendment.
Friedman has presently lost his case in two courts, a US District Court and then 7th US Circuit Court of Appeals.
The National Rifle Association has submitted a brief with the Supreme Court in support of the court taking up Friedmans case.
The courts determination on whether they hear the case or not could come as early as today.
Semiautomatic weapons are recognized from automatic weapons in that semiautomatic weapons need the user to press the trigger each time one fires instead of automatic weapons which enable the user to fire many rounds while merely holding down the trigger.
The NRA claims that semiautomatics now count for about 50 % of all new firearms purchased annually.
What do you think of the semiautomatic gun restriction? Does it infringe the Second Amendment or not?
There's no telling what the crows will do with this one.
The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out... without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable. ~ H. L. Mencken
For a country to be divided, it must first be united.
This country is already divided. The states have no sovereign rights other than what is granted in the Constitution.
For the USSC to 'declare' or 'rule' the 2nd Amendment null and void, requires a revision of the Constitution, which requires the majority of 2/3 of both the house and senate.
I don't see it happening.
It would be 'unconstitutional.'
